Very well put together video. Underrated channel. Thank you for this great information.

I will never buy VA again, got it once and the blur was driving me insane. I play a lot of fps games. My fault that I didn't do my research more thoroughly, I only heard the image quality was good and that was truth. But as soon as objects began to move it was baaaad...

My monitor is 23 inch something, 1080p, has a tn panel and 144hz refresh rate and 1ms response. Best monitor ive ever had

[soggydoggyk]

Excellent video! Narrator was great, usually i zone out 😂

[bubbalu]

my monitors response time is 4ms, and it has hdr to better help with the darker colours with a 180hz refresh rate, VA panel and it was only $140USD

my current AOC IPS haS terrible viewing angle. You haVE to sit perfectly centered and even then the corners would get dark. Im gonna return it and maybe get iiyama because on this video I see it doesnt get dark when viewed from the side

If you play single player games/use the monitor for different tasks like watching content good VA panel is the best option. (Unless you can fit an OLED in your budget) IPS low contrast makes many games with dark scenes pain to play. If you are competitive/online FPS gamer then get IPS.

I regret having a TN panel as text in videos is blurry and unclear...only plus is the fast refresh rate, which is supposedly good for gaming...other than that it looks pretty horrible with video too as i can see vertical banding with fast moving videos.

Acer Nitro QG271 S3 27" FHD 180Hz Gaming Monitor (VA pANEL, FHD, 1Ms Response Time, 180Hz Refresh Rate) . Well how about this VA panel monitor.

If you play a game looking from the side, take ips. If you play the game facing straight ahead of the monitor, take TN

[congheleechconghelach]

TN always had the worst viewing angles i mean treacherously bad and colors werent the best why is anyone talking TN in 2023? is beyond me

[andrewkennan]

would a 1080p ips gaming monitor with 100htz be any good as I'm looking for one to play on a xbox series s

[anonymous]

i usually do casual web browsing, and casual gaming. Is TN good enough? For example, I'm looking at the 34" Samsung Odyssey G5 3440x1440 165Hz Curved Ultrawide Monitor

[annalarsen]

What should I pick if I play survival games and mmorpgs?

[emirhanucgul]

6ms 60hz barely 1080p. Best of regards from turkey

[squidMB]

I feel for consoles VA panels are the best option

[adarsh]

I am a designer, so I need really good color accuracy. I used to be a competitive gamer, but not as much now, so the lowest response times won't make a difference. Which monitor should I get?

[yigitkral]

Trust me TN is no ghosting best monitor even in VA you can see frames like liquid its disgusting

[ahojpika]

yeah so thats why the color isnt the best at my monitor got it
